Online Streaming And Professional Gaming Is A $300,000 Career Choice

Consistency is the most important factor to your success. Showing up is a prerequisite and it’s not easy. Making sure day-in and day-out that your face is live for everything to see is hard. Whether you’re healthy, sick, happy, sad or just plain exhausted is something that your viewers are going to see. It’s the audience getting to know you as a person or personality is what drives them to come back every day.

Personality is the second most important factor. There are two types of characters that are popular: the technical streamer and the charismatic streamer. The technical streamers are knowledgeable and know all the ins-and-outs of the game. They’re here to educate and help you improve your gaming. The charismatic streamer likely knows the game well-enough, but you care more about watching them go off the deep end when they make mistakes or when they’re on cloud nine as they beat their opponents into a pulp.

Lastly, focusing on a niche. Every successful streamer has a niche that they satisfy. This niche can be based on a single game, goals like breaking world records or just providing laughs. It’s important for you to find that niche and to just focus on that specialty.
